My grandmother loved his music very much.

Not to my taste in music, but a great man of God. I am sure his fans will greatly miss him. I have a story, as always. In my search for new material, I frequented a flea market for records by Christian artists for a "Christian oldies" show. The flea market vendor began to know who I was and what I was looking for and would save things for me. Finally, one day, he donated his entire Christian section to me - some 400 albums. George Beverly Shea was well represented in the collection. I found maybe 30 albums I could use on the air out of the 400, and found a gospel fan who wanted the rest. 400 albums were really heavy - weighed down the rear of my little car, but I got them the 20 miles to where we agreed to meet. This fellow was one of those who didn't like our show, but I was glad to re-home those albums where they would be appreciated. My only regret is that years later someone in radio wanted those records, which were donated years before.
